Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I enjoy soft start mornings where students come in and for the first little bit of their day they are learning and playing using STEM toys and games such as MagnaTikes and Marble Run. I want to build up my available STEM toys for them to continue exploring, growing and learning. This is an amazing way for students to learn to work together, persevere and to begin the day in a fun and meaningful way. Students love these soft starts because they have the power to choose what they want to do before the days lessons begin.
